In 2012 verloren we Jean Jacques Peters, voormalig ingenieur van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium (1964 tot 1979) en internationaal expert in sedimenttransport, rivierhydraulica en -morfologie. Als eerbetoon aan hem hebben we potamology (http://www.potamology.com/) gecreëerd, een virtueel gedenkarchief dat als doel heeft om zijn manier van denken en morfologische aanpak van rivierproblemen in de wereld in stand te houden en te verspreiden.

Soil contamination from heavy metals and persistent organic pollutants (PAH, PCB and HCB) in the coastal area of Vasternorrland, Sweden
Lindh, P.; Lemenkova, P. (2022). Soil contamination from heavy metals and persistent organic pollutants (PAH, PCB and HCB) in the coastal area of Vasternorrland, Sweden. Gospodarka Surowcami Mineralnymi-Mineral Resources Management 38(2): 147-168. https://dx.doi.org/10.24425/gsm.2022.141662
This paper presents an experimental study on the leaching of heavy metals, toxic chemicals and persistent organic pollutants (POPS) - PAH, PCB and HCB - from soil dredged from the coastal area of Vasternorrland in northern Sweden. The soil was stabilized with cement/slag. Samples were subjected to modified surface leaching and shake tests using technical standards of the Swedish Geotechnical institute (all). The experiments were performed using different blends of binding agents (30/70, 50/50, 70/30) and binder quantities (120 and 150 kg/m(3)) to analyze their effects on leaching. Soil pmperties, tools, and workflow are described. Binders included Portland cement and gmund granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS). Samples were tested to evaluate the min/max contents of pollutants (mu g/l) for heavy metals (As, Ba, Pb, Cd, Co, Cu, Cr, Hg, Mn, Mo, Ni, S, V, Zn) and the hydrocarbon fraction index in the excess water. The leaching of heavy metals and POPs was assessed in sediments after the addition of the binder. The comparison was made against the two mixes (cement/slag in 30/70% and high/low binder with low/high water ratio). The results showed that 70% slag decreases the leaching of heavy metals and POPs. The equilibrium concentrations of DOC and heavy metals at L/S 10 (gg/l) were measured during the shake experiments to compare their levels in the groundwater that was used as a leachate. The leached content was assessed at L/S 10 in the upscaling experiments using four samples for PAH, PCB and various fractions of hydrocarbons: C10-C40, C10-C12, C12-C16 and C35-C40. The shake test showed a decrease in the leaching of heavy metals and POP substances from the soil subjected to stabilization by a higher amount of slag added as a binder. A binder blend with 30% cement and 70% of GGBFS showed the best performance.
